Husband and I have had various losses the last almost two years. Last year we had our baby boy prematurely and heartbreakingly died an hour after he was born. Since then we have been trying unsuccessfully- some months, I think through the grief I would make myself believe that there was a line.

I’m 8 days post ovulation today and I think I can see a vvv faint pink line that came within the ‘window’.

I don’t want to tell my husband and get his hopes up bcos I’m scared that I’ve got line eyes. I am feeling a little rough which prompted me to take the test so maybe I am pregnant?

Thanks all! Glad this is an uplifting thread for everyone, I think we can all do with some good feelings especially at the start of this year.

Husband and I decided to celebrate a little last night and had a nice dinner. We’re back to managing expectations today and taking it a day at a time. Did have to pinch myself this morning when I remembered.

I’ve done another FR and it’s getting darker so it’s given us some peace of mind for now. I’ve got some clear blue digital tests which I’ll do to see if the pregnancy is progressing week by week, at least until 6/7 weeks when I have my first scan (part of the ‘care pack’ after a late loss).

Very much hope we get to that stage and get to see a little heartbeat. Xxx

@Greenbks

Thanks guys! I read every single message yesterday and today and appreciate them all.

So I managed to stop crying for long enough to go down and ask if husband had a break coming up. He finished writing an email and I burst into tears. At first he thought it was about our son and me feeling down but I was also laughing (like a slightly demented person) so he figured it out. He looked as shocked as I felt when I saw that tiny almost invisible line. Once/if I get to 5 weeks I will contact my midwife so she can set up a care plan and all the necessary checks that need to happen.

Both very happy and are just going to enjoy today and see what the tomorrow days bring.

Aww I had such a big grin on my face reading this 🤗🥰

You deserve this so much! Best of luck to you Thanks

Oh how wonderful, this is amazing news. Congratulations to both of you.

My line was lighter than your first one, and DS is 4 weeks old today and snoozing on my chest.

Congratulations again Thanks
